AtwellFamily

Seeing these I am kind of disappointed that there was not more done to make sure people didn't use the same colors and plantings as others. I would have like to have been given some notice that two other coins would look very much like the coin I asked for. Seems like that was lacking this year unlike before.

Does it have to be metal stamped or die cast?

If these are sold, di you get permission from Groundspeak to you the artwork, that is a registered trademark?

i'm not making accusations or trying to be confrontational. just wondering if you think it's silly to place a $10 +++ coin out there that may very well end up 'missing'? $10 is cheap when I place a full 5 gallon bucket with spores that were full (total value $300) when missing after the fourth person found it.

I would love to see Las Vegas.....come in second!

Maybe not proxy but every "Travel Bug" is shipped with a copy or duplicate. There was also a store that sold tags you could engrave your tracking number on.

Project has gotten new life. I should have the first few states out in 3-4 months with a few sates following every few months. I have plans for a state map and possibly a binder or folder to hold the larger coins.

Here ya go. For those wanting to remove excess white space from logs and able to install user CSS, this code removes a lot. See comments in the code for details. It includes the avatar killer I posted earlier and also trims space around the log text. The parts between /* ... */ are purely for human consumption and can be removed if having the comments lying around disturbs you. I don't know anything about ABP, but from the examples I've seen posted here, I gather it's just a slightly easier syntax that gets converted into CSS, so my CSS can probably be rewritten in ABP. /* Make avatars on logs just totally vanish. I don't know whether this prevents the download. */ .logOwnerAvatar {display:none} /* Tighten up the spacing in the log. Readability is not reduced at all, due to the alternating background colors and the bold log type. */ .LogDisplayRight .LogText {min-height: 0 !important; padding-top: 0 !important; margin-bottom: 0 !important} /* Try to stop the View Log from taking up a whole line all for itself. This occasionally (perhaps 1 log in 10) causes the View Log to overlap a bit of the log text. If this bothers you, remove this line. The only cost of removing it is a bit of extra space at the bottom of most logs. */ .LogText + .AlignRight {margin-top: -20px !important} Edward How and where would I use this kind of code? I usually use Chrome to browse the web.

I sent artwork in over a week ago. I wanted to know when to expect it back?

Couples questions: 1. Cost? 2. Pre-Sales, does that mean you are taking peoples money or just taking order? Thanks Mike p.s. Love the coin.

Hope this works...

Can we get texture on level 4 and maybe even some in the outer ring, not sure if that is level 2 or 3?

In previous years there was a chart to show where we could color code certain colors, is there any limitation this year?

That does not seem like it is the most direct route to the event. MSP to PIT???

Might seem funny but I flew into Detroit yesterday. Need MI for my 51 state challenge (only 2 left now). Here is one of the coins I am bringing, the rest were shipped direct and I also have some new personal coins to trade.

They are different but with not much metal showing, it is difficult to tell.

You are correct!

Count me in for the Denver, Colorado event.

Shipping in mid June. Direct to me at GW. GW = Geowoodstock? That is July 2 not mid June... CF30 They were to ship mid June to a location near GW for me to get. Saving me shipping. They finished early and shipped last week to my here in Colorado. I'll have them this week to send out.

So we really need to make a distinction between the following; Tags (like travel bugs) Patches Geocoins Other Trackables (not defined above) Other Non-Trackables (not defined above) Atwell Family defines them as follows but reserves the right to modify definition. Tags - I would put anything like a dog tag in this category. Material and thicness being the major characteristics. Shape would or would not be, mostly printed but not always. Patches - Obvious Geocoins - stamped or die struck with for the most part enamel filled areas. Trackable or not, geocaching related if not trackable (can't just be some random coin. Other Trackables - as I said above, any trackable not defined above. Other Non-Trackables - Simply put...swag! Take your own shot at how to carve out the others from geocoins

I have asked for a new section, at lease in the forums, for come time now. I think we need another section called trackables...now how to define geocoin vs trackables. Let us start with made of metal but not an aluminum tag. How about, it has to fit in our pocket (no hub caps)? Clay, glass, ceramic, fabric, leather, patches and a few other would all be considered trackables. p.s. I think this might have started because geocaching.com use to add geocoin to every name of a trackable made except the TB. Now that has changed some.

Just curious what will be out there?

I thought these would ship with a magnifying glass to see the tracking codes.

I have seen these in person and they are very cool coins!
